أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ شَاهِينَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنْ حَضْرَمَوْتَ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ، قَالَ بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلِيًّا عَلَى الْيَمَنِ فَأُتِيَ بِغُلاَمٍ تَنَازَعَ فِيهِ ثَلاَثَةٌ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ خَالَفَهُمْ سَلَمَةُ بْنُ كُهَيْلٍ ‏.‏

It was narrated from a man from Hadramawt, that Zaid bin Arqam said:

"The Messenger of Allah sent 'Ali to (be the governor of) Yemen, and a child was brought to him concerning whom three men were disputing." Then he quoted the same Hadith. Salamah bin Kuhail contradicted them.

Reported by An-Nasa’i (No. 3491).
